Jung Daesik thought Seol Yu-ran would get up and leave.

But she didn’t.

She said the next moment she snuggled up and pulled Jung Daesik’s clothes down.

“Pretend you didn’t hear what I just said. It’s like you don’t have anything to do tonight. It means don’t feel burdened.”

If it has nothing to do with scouting, why is Seol Yu-ran like this?

She couldn’t help but wonder, but her question was intercepted by her lips, which were approaching.

Seol Yu-ran’s lips were fragrant and sweet no matter what she had applied.

As her earning money was prioritized above all else, she built a wall with women.

She couldn’t even dream of dating in a world where poverty is a sin.

But suddenly a beautiful woman attacked her naked, and she had no talent to fight it.

She somehow refused until she was Hwang Mi-gun, but this was absolutely unreasonable.

‘Hey, I don’t know!’

Jung Daesik knocked Seol Yu-ran down and rushed in without hesitation.

* * *

the next morning.

When she opened her eyes, Seol Yu-ran was already gone.

There was only a commotion everywhere with the crew preparing for her departure.

‘Have I ever been possessed by a fox?’

Jung Daesik scratched his head and brushed off the afterglow of the night before preparing to go hunting.

When I got her clothes and equipment and went out to get a meal, Cheol-Min Ki was waiting.

He looked at Jung Daesik and grunted with a strange expression.

“Did you have fun last night?”

Seol Yu-ran was quite noisy.

Despite the crew lying close to her, she did not hesitate.

As Jung Daesik scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, Ki Chul-min chuckled.

“Still, I had fun with the most beautiful woman in the Zodiac raid. Well, it wouldn’t be a waste to lose some magic.”

“Huh? Losing magic power. What does that mean?”

Ki Chul-min burst into laughter at Jung Daesik’s stupid question.

“Hey, don’t you know that?”

“What?”

“Ahahaha! You really don’t know?”

“So what do you mean?”

When Jung Daesik became impatient, Ki Chul-min said, stinging his tears.

“Do you know the reason why female hunters don’t hesitate to attack with flesh-and-dash to sleep with well-known male hunters? It’s because of the myth.”

“Is it a myth?””I don’t know if it’s true or not, but they say that when we have a relationship with talented people like us, magical powers are mixed. So, there is a saying that when you do it with someone with excellent magic, you share that ability.”

“It’s absurd… What’s the rationale?”

“No. So, it’s a myth. But there are surprisingly many people who believe it.”

Ki Chul-min tapped Jung Daesik on the back and said.

“Perhaps all the female crew members here are anxious? Since Seol Yu-ran stopped the start, the women in your barracks will not stop from tonight. She’s a rare triple-positioner, so she’ll want to sleep with you no matter what.”

Jung Daesik didn’t know whether to be happy or not, so his expression became ambiguous.

It should have been good that it suddenly exploded in popularity, but when I heard that my abilities were being taken away, I felt uncomfortable.

Even if it was just a myth, it was difficult to ignore it.

Not only Jung Daesik, but all the people who went in and out of the dungeon were weak against superstition.

Since it is a place where life goes back and forth for even a small mistake, I had no choice but to be sensitive to jinx and omens.

It was for the same reason that Jung Daesik became a target for women.

She was usually a female hunter because her eyes were attached to the top of her head, and her nose was as high as Everest.

It was difficult for a woman to survive in the harsh hunter world.

Also, among the hunters, the ratio of women was on the low side.

That is why the female hunter had better skills than the male hunter.

As long as they overcame their physical handicap and survived, there were many cases where the skills of female hunters were superior for the same age.

Naturally, such female hunters never look back on men who are worse than themselves.

Hunters with a lower rank than him did not even look at him.

According to the myth Ki Cheol-min said, sleeping with such guys would only take away his abilities, so he unconditionally wanted only good and strong men with a higher rating than him.

For that reason, Jung Daesik, who is presumed to be capable of triple position, was a good opponent for female hunters of the same level or below.

It is said that horses are good opponents, and they are nothing less than prey.

Perhaps because of his mood, Jung Daesik could feel his gaze on him throughout the meal.

All the female hunters were looking at themselves with twinkling eyes.

Hwang Mi-gun’s eyes were shining with life.

In anger that Seol Yu-ran had lost Jung Daesik, she was ready to eat him.

It couldn’t have been more of a burden.

Before I even started hunting, I felt like I was getting faster for the women.

Soon, the meal was over and the day’s schedule began.

Members of each team gathered and listened to a brief briefing.

Then, as yesterday, he formed a line and went to the hunting ground.

“Start!”

* * *

The road leading to section C.

When Seol Yu Ran and her eyes met, she gave a refreshing wink.

If it was a man, it was enough to make my heart flutter, but I wasn’t very happy with it because I had heard it.

It wasn’t because he liked Jung Daesik, but he was only aiming for his body to recruit or steal his abilities, so no matter how manly he was, he couldn’t help but feel good.

It was even more so because Ki Chul-min was constantly giggling next to him.

He took the bandages off in one day.

An unpleasant scar was left in the middle of the face, but the wound healed cleanly.

Even if anyone has doubts about its amazing resilience.

No one cared for him as he was just a temporary agent.

It’s because he doesn’t even care that he’s injured.

Of the temporary crew, only three people made it to Area C.

Jung Daesik, Ki Chul-min, and one unknown dealer of Leo.

The dealer was also injured, but it was minor.

So, like Ki Chul-min, he seemed to have decided to go hunting together until the end.

In any case, since most of the temporary crew had been left behind at base camp, the number was significantly reduced from yesterday.

It felt like almost half were missing.

Nevertheless, there was no tension in the advance squad.

Rather, it was an atmosphere of ease because it was possible to get rid of the interim crew and fight directly.

Shortly after leaving the base camp, monsters started appearing.

Indeed, like Section C, the size was all distracting.

The movements of the regular crew against such monsters were very inconsistent.

Up until now, it felt like the temporary crew had been fighting just a joke.

It’s quick, clear, and smooth.

The five teams moved effortlessly as if they were one body.

“Aquarius! Aggro to the left, to the left!”

“Leo is aiming at his right flank! Now! Out!”

“Haejwa, not yet. Save your magic! Wait for the signal!”

“Taurus is returning to the rear! Kill the prey!”

“Sagittarius! Reload, reload!”

Following the busily passing orders through the communicator, the regular crews moved in unison.

The fact that he had fought dozens or hundreds of times with this combination was disgusting.

That’s why the battle speed was very fast.

Even if a large monster appeared, he quickly defeated it and moved forward.

Then, at some point, the number of monsters started to appear less frequently.

The march was stopped and the team leaders gathered.

For this moment, Hwang Mi-gun and Seol Yu-ran also put aside their hostility towards each other and focused on the situation in front of them.

“If you see the monsters disappear, you must be right?”

“Yeah, that’s right. It’s most likely an area where boss mobs appear!”

“From the types of monsters I’ve seen so far, it seems like they’re also insects.”

“I don’t know, but it must be a large paper.”

“Is it a flying type?”

“No, it’s more likely to be a land type. Flying types are rare.”

“Isn’t it a super-large species?””It’s not that level of a dungeon.”

“It’s roughly a large species of land-type insect-type monster, that’s the word.”

After the discussion, each team leader regrouped.

Because it was a fight against a boss mob, the strategy was different from before.

The advance team was divided into three groups.

Tanks, close deals, long deals, and buffers were evenly placed in those three groups.

Only one healer fell to the rear under Hwang Mi-gun’s protection.

Park Moo-sik, the head of the tank team, was in general command of the three groups, and one team leader was assigned to each of the three groups.

“Then let’s go!”

Shortly after the procession advanced again, an expansive space like a cave appeared.

It was a jungle-like place with trees everywhere, but it was dark and damp because there was no light.

Everywhere there were carnivorous plants with their mouths wide open and drooling.

The carnivorous plants here were small enough to not feel threatened.

The viscosity of the saliva was also weak, so even if it touched it, it was at the level of a little blister.

Even so, of course, it’s annoying.

As the team was moving away from a thicket of carnivorous plants, a horrifying noise was suddenly heard in front of them.

“Kyaaaaaa!”

“It’s a boss mob!”

As soon as he heard Park Moo-sik’s cry, a boss mob guarding the core of the dungeon appeared.

“It’s a thorn scorpion!”

The monster appeared to be an evolutionary version of the spiny spider that Jung Daesik defeated with his powerful force.

It was the size of a house, and the hairs that grew densely all over the body were as sharp as thorns.

It had a pair of large claws and eight thick legs.

What caught the eye more than anything else was the tail soaring high at the back.

A poison stinger was attached to the tip of a large tail surrounded by an outer carapace.

The poison was dripping from the stinger, and there was a crackling and burning sound wherever the poison touched.

It was highly probable that the acid was strong enough to burn the skin just by rubbing it.

Above all, that chin!

Every time it closed its ghastly jaw, which was split sideways, there was a rumble, like a chain clashing.

Judging from the fact that the jaw, which appears to be an extension of the outer skin, looks quite hard, there is a high possibility that the upper is also incredibly strong.

It seemed to really overwhelm the crowd, but Park Moo-sik shouted without panicking.

“Our group A enters first! Group B and C spread out to the sides!”

The operation was like this.

The opponent is presumed to be a large insect-type monster.

Since they were more likely to have a skin, the probability of a long battle was also high.

If each team rushed in with the roles divided, the tanker or dealer could come out first with claws or stingers.

Then only one deal or buffer will remain, and then the hunting will be over the water.

In order to prevent such a situation, each team member is going to knock the boss mob in turn in three groups evenly distributed.
